SIR GUESTLING THORN

 Day 148

Irrespective of whether America believes Biden is a better choice than Trump surely any other choice is better than Trump? Of course not withstanding he is 77 he must be a better choice. I’ve just watched a video of Trump wittering on about something to do with Sharks and I did not comprehend a single word he was saying. It was like listening to a man recovering from a stroke and learning to talk again! I’ve said and written much about Trump over the years as he rose to become President not a single thing has been complementary, I have insulted him in every way possible using language from the profane to the reasonable. I genuinely have never disliked anyone in the public arena as much. Thatcher, Farage and Johnson have come close but Trump trumps them all even though he is the “leader” of another country! Every single appointee that he started with has been indicted or found guilty of some type of misdemeanour or corruption. Yet the man himself who we know is corrupt and has committed all sorts of horrors has remained in power! If he does not loose we are doomed. 

Like me have you found in spite of the enforced lockdown and restrictions that time has flown by if anything even faster then usual? Time is a man made measurement and does not really exist in the way we perceive it in seconds, minutes, hours and days! It is nearly the end of August and yet it seems very little has changed since lockdown was announced? The virus is still rampant and dominates our lives and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. It could be come a permanent way of living and change us forever, if hasn’t already? 

I’ve read about all sorts of perceived hardships that people have suffered because of lockdown some of which are so pathetic that you wonder how fragile people are? I read today of a guy who works for a IT company having suffered anxiety because he has no human interaction with his colleagues will working from home. Now he may well do but please get some perspective, you have a job your not ill and you are in IT, get a grip. If that does not read like my normal tolerant understanding self so be it but really!!

Stay well
